Harry Kane will not activate the €65m release clause in his Bayern contract, as reported by Christian Falk and Sport Bild. Instead, the England captain is fully focused on winning trophies in Munich, with Bayern set to open contract talks later this year.
Markus Fjørtoft and Jan Åge Fjørtoft break down what this means for Bayern and the Bundesliga, the Premier League links, whether Kane’s future is now firmly in Germany, and why Kane does NOT care about the Premier League record.

Kane loves bayern and bayern loves kane
Kane and Bayern= best fit!!
The Kanes are expecting their 5th child. That means, in a few years they are a complete football team together with the 4 grandparents 😀
England killed it's football history with PL, they sold out their football to foreign investors.
Absolutely no surprise here, why on earth would he return to the PL to beat Shearer's record?? Meaningless, staying at Bayern means he'll win many Bundesliga titles and maybe a CL gong too, or at least be part of a potential cup winning side.
Great news to start the work day! Thanks for making these shows, they're always so enjoyable
I originally thought Kane would go back to England after his contract, especially to raise his family. Now my fingers are crossed he’ll stay at Bayern for a long time. It’s looking more likely now!
Bayern could also say thanks to Thomas Tuchel…
Why should he because Bayern is at par with any other club, Bayern is everything for a player
Haaland will smash Alan Shearers record in 2030-32 anyway.
It is almost inevitable, there is absolutly no point for Harry to go and sacrifice trophys for it.
Compare winning the Championsleague to being the PremireLeague topscorer for 3 seasons xD
you 2 really be yapping too much but youre yapping in favour of the bundesliga so ill let it slide lol keep it up bois
